    • RESEARCH_NOTES:
      1. I have been in communication with Paula Haymon of Maryland who is a descendant of Jane Mangum and George Crawford. Paula is working on establishing Jane as the daughter of John Mangum and Rebecca Mangum. There is nothing but circumstantial evidence that is somewhat compelling. Many records show Jane married to Jedediah M. Brown, but there has never been any proof of this except for an undocumented note in the Mangum book by Delta Ivie Mangum Hale. On the other hand, the website <http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~robfra/marr.html> has the county list of marriages of Itawamba County, Mississippi. Samuel Adair performed a marriage between her and George Crawford on 8 Jun 1841. Samuel would have been Jane's brother-in-law since he was married to Jane's sister Jemima. Jane Mangum and her husband did not follow all the other Mangums and Adairs to Iowa/Utah/Arizona. The 7 Oct 1919 written testimony of Samuel Newton Adair wherein he states Jeney Mangum, daughter of John and Rebecca Mangum married George Crawford, is the compelling link eliminating Jedediah Brown and adding George Crawford. Samuel would have been in a good position to have known this. As a side note, the names Jane and Jeney [Jenny] have long been accepted as interchangeable names for Jane. Paula's data is at the following Ancestry.com website: <http://awt.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=paulandc&id=I1134&ti=5519>. She notes: "I have located a Cyrus Mangum whom I believe to be the son of John, in Pickens County, AL in 1840 and 1850, and Lavaca County, TX in 1860. I have the names of some of his children from these census records on my Ancestry.com site. I do not have the surname of his wife, however in 1850 and 1860 her first name is given as Lucinda. I began this search on him as my ancestor since Jane Mangum Crawford named a son John Cyrus. I wanted to determine if her father was Cyrus or John. Although most genealogies list Jane Mangum, daughter of John as married to a Jedediah Brown, I have a primary record for Jane Mangum's marriage to George Crawford in Itawamba County, MS in 1841. The Cyrus Mangum family [Kerry's note: Cyrus was John's son through his second wife Gemima Goggins.]:
      Father: Cyrus Mangum, b: 1803 in South Carolina [Kerry's note: Newberry, Newberry, SC.]
      Mother: Lucinda Unknown, b: 1812 in South Carolina
      Children per Census of Pickens County, AL for 1850 and Census of Lavaca County, TX for 1860 US:
      Mary Mangum, Sex: F Birth: 1830. Marriage: John Turman, b: 1822 in Tennessee, married: 1850 in Pickens County, AL. (Logical conclusions: I have placed Mary Turman in Cyrus's family as they lived near each other in both 1850 and 1860. I am not certain that his daughter in 1830 census is Mary but, here is what I've found. The daughter in the "Under 5" category of the 1830 Pickens County, AL census would have been 20-24 years old in 1850. As she was the only child in 1830, some conclusions may be drawn. (1) Cyrus and Lucinda were probably married within the past year or two. (2) With no other children, this makes her probably under two, highly likely to be under one and born in 1830. (2) Therefore, her age in 1850 is most likely toward the low end of the 20-24 range and is most probably 20. On page 11a of the Pickens County, AL., 1850 census, one page away from the Cyrus Mangum family, are Mary (20, b. in AL) and John Terman (28 b in TN). In 1860 in Lavaca County, TX, on page 193, the family immediately above Cyrus Mangum is Mary and John Turman, ages 30 and 38 with birthplaces of AL and TN, respectively.)
      David Mangum, Sex: M Birth: 1833
      Elizabeth Mangum, Sex: F Birth: 1836
      Warren Mangum, Sex: M, Birth: 1837
      Nancy Mangum, Sex: F, Birth: 1840
      Alaham Mangum, Sex: M, Birth: 1844
      John Mangum, Sex: M, Birth: 1850"

      4. Email of Luella Mangum January 26, 2004:
      "Cyrus Mangum's wife was Lucinda O'Daniel. Her parents were William O'Daniel and Mary Carolina Abercrombie. Mary Carolina was the widow of Benj. Williams. Both William and Mary C. were born in Laurens Co., S.C. She died in 1849 in Pickens Co. AL. He died 1838 in Pickens Co. Cyrus and Lucinda O'Daniel's children were: David (1833/36), James Warren Jan. 3, 1838, Nancy 1841, Lucinda "Alabama" 1844, Wiley C. 1846, Samuel 1848 or 9, John Abercrombie 1849 (Uvalde Records) m. Helen Steel 1884, William B. 1853 m. Darling Franks Rufus S. b. 1855. There were 3 other children, Permelia A., EDray, and Rhoda that were born from 1836-42 that died young. Cyrus d. 1862 is buried in the Old Moulton Cemetery in Moulton, TX. So is Lucinda."
      "Cyrus is buried in my "Moore" family plot in Moulton, Texas. My husband and I were at a reunion for the Moore's/Winters/Crouch's and browsing the family fenced area. I am married to Richard Mangum and he discovered the tombstone. Being curious I went to Jacquellne M. Allen our family researcher (and she does document) to see what she knew. William O'Daniel c. 1775 married Mary Abercrombie as I said before. Their children were Mary, (she married William Moore), my line. Josiah Dial (M. Drucilla Maxwell), Rhoda (M. Abraham Bylers), Pamelia (m. Samuel Butler), Lucinda (m.. Cyrus Mangum), James (m Elizabeth Scallorn), Abercrombie (don't know). By Mary's first marriage she had Isabella Williams (m. Elijah Harris) and Benjamine Sherrill Williams (m. Edna Hitt)."
      " Here is part of an article from an Uvalde book, p812, that Jackie sent me. J. A. Mangum - John Abercrombie Mangum, a descendant of the famous English general and proud to bear his name, was born in Pickens Co., Ala., March 20, 1849. His parents were Cyrus and Lucindia O'Daniel Mangum. Cyrus had inherited a large plantation from his father. He moved to Lavaca Co., Tx. in 1856 and operated his large farm there. They were staunch Methodists and supporters of the South. He, his son-in-law, John Calhoune Turman, and eldest son, David, enlisted in the Confederate Army. He came home to die of wounds and exposure in 1862. His wife and sons operated the farm until her death in 1880. At that time the family sold the property and all moved to Uvalde, buying adjoining ranches in both Uvalde and Zavalla Counties."
